* During a 1992 concert in Buenos Aires, the crowd had been incredibly mean to the opening band Calamity Jane. This [[BerserkButton pissed off]] Kurt Cobain, who felt the crowd was being sexist because said openers were an all-female rock band. His bandmates talked him out of walking away and not playing the concert. What did they do instead? They played all their lesser known songs and played bad intentionally to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CG3J-LHKzAo punish the fans]] along with playing their HiddenTrack from ''Music/{{Nevermind}}''. When they ''did'' play a couple of "hits", they did things like replacing the entire first verse of "Come As You Are" with the word "hey". Also, they played the intro to "Smells Like Teen Spirit" twice, only to quickly cut to another song on both occasions. The crowd did not seem to [[FanDumb catch on to what the band was doing at all]].
